The holidays are approaching faster than ever. It’s that perfect time of the year to take some time to cook something delicious from scratch for your loved ones. Butternut squash ravioli is a traditional recipe from Emilia Romagna in central Italy but is enjoyed across the country as a holiday classic. There is a version of this recipe from the town Mantova that sees the addition of amaretti cookies and fruit preserve. We are proposing the classic one, but by adding the mentioned ingredients in the filling and you will obtain the Mantova version.
We love this dish! It’s a celebration of squash and winter flavors, simple yet comforty and delicious.
